The story behind the hotel
Behind its beautiful facade, the hotel hides a history that still lingers in the walls. In room 501, the spirit of Dr. Riekeles – the husband of the hotel’s third manager – is said to appear. Known as a notorious flirt, he is especially sensed by young women, who have reported a cold presence, like an invisible hand on their neck. Guests and staff have also witnessed unexplained events: doors opening on their own, carts moving without cause, and footsteps echoing in empty rooms.
For the truly brave, a visit awaits to the infamous attic in the Ritz building – a place so unsettling that even staff avoid it.
After that, a night in room 501 – but we can’t promise you’ll get any sleep.
